TIFU by tucking my head into the railing

I am a college student living in Korea. (Sorry if my English is awkward)

I have some tests next week, so I stayed at school for a long time studying in the library. So I was very very tired, and honestly, I think I was kinda out of my mind.

I was walking down the hall to get home, and the view outside the window was so beautiful. The sun was setting. But I couldn't fully see the view because of the iron railing on the window.

I looked around and there was no one there, so I tuck my head into the railing and enjoyed the sunset for a moment. (Now that I think about it, I just had to come outdoor and see it...) It was the perfect gap to put my head in.

After a while, I was satisfied and wanted to go home. But my head didn't come out. It was easy when I came in, but not when I left. I struggled.

I was in panic. Should I call 119(In the States, it's 911)? How do I explain it when I call them? "Help me, my head stuck in the railing"? They're going to come here with loud with sirens... Then the balloon will go up... Everytime(Social media used by Korean university students.) must be full of mockery about me...

Then, unfortunately, someone walked from over there. He was my senior in same major, not very close to me... I thought to myself, I looked like a cow in a farm eating past the fence.

He asked me what I was doing there. I smiled awkwardly and said I was watching the view. He asked me if I was okay. I was embarassed, so I just said that I was going to watch a little more and then leave. He left, tilting his head.

I just had to ask him for help, because even after that, I couldn't pull my head out while a few more people passed by. And after struggling for a long time, I found the perfect angle and pulled my head out. Then I came back home as fast I could.

I hope you guys don't put your head in the railing, especially in public.

TL;DR: I tucked my head into the window railing to see the outside view. But I couldn't pull my head out easily, and some people, including my senior, saw the scene.

TIFU By Fumbling My Gym Crush

I've never posted on Reddit before so apologies if anything is off. I (F) had a crush on a man at my gym for months. We would make extended eye contact frequently, workout in proximity, the usual gym things that get over analyzed when you like someone. He's wildly handsome, but I liked his vibe. A lot. It's hard to explain when someone's energy just hits different but his did. One day he started coming in with a woman. The day I saw her with him, he and I actually stared at each other from across the room for a while, and I turned and walked away because obviously gym rules - that's his girlfriend until I'm told otherwise. The eye contact continues and so does the proximity but I've dialed back completely because in my head, he has a girl and I am no home wrecker. Well, recently, on a Sunday, I was having a real shit day. I accidentally hurt my shoulder so my back day was all off, my body wasn't cooperating, the gym was packed - all I wanted to do w...

TIFU by sh*tting in the bushes at a high school

So I’m training for a local 10k race in a couple months. That’s about 6.2 miles. Not a long race but not a short one either. I’m making good progress and tinkering with what works for me on longer runs, how I can keep my body moving at an easy, consistent pace for about 70-80 minutes. I’ve been increasing the distance over the past few months, prioritizing getting the distance down before I work on pace. I train early mornings at a local high school track within walking distance of my house. They have public hours almost every morning from 6-8 am. It’s a very nice track with good lighting and ✨no public bathrooms✨. Because I’ve been focused on increasing distance I’m waking up earlier and earlier to get to the track and really hammer it out before I go home and shower for work. In turn, I’ve been drinking a little extra COFFEE most mornings get my body going. Til now this hasn’t been a problem, I don’t leave the house until my body takes care of business. I successfully dropped the ...
